Capelin Size, Condition, and Abundance Through Multiple Heatwaves in Alaska

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Capelin (Mallotus spp.) are pelagic forage fishes that can be especially abundant in sub‐arctic marine ecosystems and are important prey for upper trophic‐level consumers. Abundance and distribution of capelin have been linked to ocean temperature, but the magnitude and directionality of thermal sensitivity can vary regionally.

Compound‐Specific Stable Isotope Analysis Reveals Population‐Specific Differences in Chinook Salmon Trophic Level and Basal Resource Use in the Northeast Pacific

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chinook salmon exhibit far‐flung and disparate population‐specific marine migrations that have made it difficult to assess their trophic ecology. In this study, we collected returning and resident subadult Fraser River Chinook salmon in 2018 and 2019 from population groups with different known run‐timings (spring, summer, and fall) and marine ...

Ensemble Machine Learning Approaches for Bathymetry Estimation in Multi-Spectral Images

open access: yesGeomatics
Traditional bathymetry measures require a large number of human hours, and many bathymetry records are obsolete or missing. Automated measures of bathymetry would reduce costs and increase accessibility for research and applications.

Visualizing the Geology of Lake Trout Spawning Sites: Northern Lake Michigan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Geologists and biologists are working together to understand the links between lake floor geology (composition and shape) and the distribution of lake trout throughout their life cycle. Lake floor geology is one of the main factors determining where lake

Mapping Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum) in Motion: Oceanographic Forces Shaping Its Habitat in the Southwestern South Atlantic, With Insights From Fishers' Perceptions

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lepidocybium flavobrunneum [Smith, 1843], commonly known as escolar, is a large pelagic species, important for global and local fisheries, particularly in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), where it constitutes a significant portion of the catch.

Airborne Electromagnetic Bathymetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Traditional methods for measuring the water depth rely on sonar soundings. However airborne techniques offer the advantages of increased survey speed and operation over dangerous waters that may be affected by very strong tides and the presence of shoals and reefs that limit the operation of surface vessels. The airborne lidar method has been used very

Environmental Drivers of Jumbo Squid During Fishery Collapse in the Gulf of California (2019–2024)

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) is a cephalopod endemic to the eastern Pacific with significant ecological and economic importance. Its exploitation in the Gulf of California (GC) peaked in the 1990s, with catches exceeding 100,000 tons, but collapsed in 2009 and virtually disappeared by 2015, largely due to environmental changes and ...

High Resolution Mapping in support of UNCLOS Article 76: Seeing the seafloor with new eyes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Since 2003, the Center for Coastal & Ocean Mapping/Joint Hydrographic Center at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) has been conducting multibeam mapping of many U.S.

Using the Diet Composition of Adult Chinook Salmon to Understand the Regional Structure of Salish Sea Forage Communities

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small pelagic fish and other forage species are patchily distributed over space and time, resulting in variable foraging conditions experienced by their predators. The high‐resolution data necessary to understand the spatiotemporal structure of forage communities are challenging to collect with expensive fishery‐independent surveys, meaning ...

GRDL: A New Global Reservoir Area‐Storage‐Depth Data Set Derived Through Deep Learning‐Based Bathymetry Reconstruction

open access: yesWater Resources Research
Reservoirs play a critical role in the global water cycle by regulating the flow of water from the environment into human systems. Accurate estimation of the area‐storage‐depth relationships for global reservoirs is essential for effective hydrological ...
